Clothes 101: Working out Outfits part 2

Hey guys!

I know it took a lot of time to get the second part of this "series" but I have been watching all the new trends that are coming for the work out kind of business. Now people like the good old spandex pants and even use the leggins as workout pants. 

In other words, people love been comfortable is the KEY. I know this is a recurring subject in this type of posts, specially for the girls and women that go for hikes and biking and even inside of a gym for dance classes or boot-camps that make you sweat your life out (FAT BURNING BABY). Now I was planning to make a side note and focus more on the people that like to build up muscle and tone their body and how wearing a perfect outfit can help you to be at the top of that goal. 

First of all you need (again) comfortable clothes and a little heavy clothes so that you add a little extra effort 

to your work out and push yourself a little further. 


wearing some baggy clothes that can make you sweat, is the most important factor to burn the fat and start toning and building up muscle. Remember: always make sure to do the right exercises for the goal you want to achieve with a PT (personal trainer) or in the gym you go to. 


A woman always need to have support, remember the essentials by clicking here to see that, and use a sports bra under those clothes. A hoody can make you sweat and it is not so light so it make your workout to have some more intensity. 


I found a good deal on them in VS Pink collection and instantly thought that Pink= GIRLY, so I had to add some of their items. The one that I liked the most is the Yoga half-zip Pullover and it has a nice ensemble and comes in a variety of other colours other than grey. 

They have zip-up hoodies and hoodies with no zippers, which I personally like the most because I feel that they are more comfortable and the zipper doesn't get in the way while you are running or exercising. 


I guess I find always something from VS because I instantly think that working out must also be a fun way to be the fashionable self that you are. 


Also find some baggy pants and some comfy running shoes or shoes that are suitable for the type of workout you are doing. 


In honour of getting the perfect training shoes, I found this pair of trainers of course, they are pink haha! and they are nikes, what else can you ask for ? ok here is the picture of them: 

As I was saying, get a pair of baggy pants that can make you sweat even more and push you a lot further with your routine. If you can, get those sauna suits and start working out with the pants or only with the top because working with the both can make you supper hot and make dehydration. So keep a water bottle always next to you while you workout. 

Here are some pictures of the Baggy Pants

Sunday: Brunch and Pastas

Hey guys! 


Today I had brunch and it actually was more of lunch than anything else. 

They served a pasta with lemon chicken which was so good that i had to get the recipe from the chef, she was kind enough to come and talk to me about the secret of this pasta (the credit goes to my lovely aunt) and therefore I got it and now i can make it at home! i would change some of the things to make it a lot more healthy. 

Here is my version of it: 


Ingredients: 


1) 1/2 kg of whole-grain pasta
2) 2 lemons (green lemon for it to be more sour) 
3) 1 spoon of ground garlic
4) 1 seasoning envelope
5) Salt
6) Pepper
7) Half a chicken breast
8) Milk 
9) Olive oil


Preparation: 


1) Boil the whole-grain pasta with some salt, no oil. 
2) cut the chicken breast, previously remove the skin, in small squares. 
3) Pour just a little of olive oil in a pan, let it heat and then fry the ground garlic to let the flavour become more noticeable. 
4) Add and fry the chicken breast with some salt and pepper and the seasoning envelope together. 
5) Add a cup of milk to the chicken and mix well, if you like it to be a little more consistent just dissolve in a cup with a small amount of water one spoon of flour and then add that to the milk while boiling. 
6) Finally add the juice of the 2 lemons. Don't worry of the mixture starts separating, it is normal, just mix well. 


For the final serving put the pasta in a plate, and spread the just made cream with the chicken. 


I assure you that it is amazing and fills you the right way. 


(i wish i had taken a picture of my plate!) 


hope you enjoy it and if you try it, tell me what your thoughts are!

13 personal Questions Tag.

Hey guys! 


Today I felt like doing something different and that really goes out of topic, but i thought that it would be much fun to get you to know me a little better. 


So I was creeping around youtube and found this tag, which basically consists of 13 questions to answer and in that way other people can see what are your interests apart from what you normally talk in your blog or posts. 


And now, this is the 13 personal question tag. 


1) What do you order at Starbucks? 


Normally I order a tall vanilla latte or a caramel frappuccino if i feel it is not too cold outside in the winter but i keep it seasonal, hot coffee for winter and iced coffee for summer.

  
2) What's one thing in your closet you can't live without? 


The number one thing that i can't live without from my closet is my (could it be anything? oh well here it goes) Roxy hoody that is the prettiest ivory white with an abstract butterfly on the back. Even though there's more in my closet that i can't live without that is the most outstanding piece of clothing i could think off. 


3) What's one thing that most people don't know about you? 


I think that maybe that they take me for granted because i am always smiling and trying to keep positive about things that they think that i am not well focused on my priorities, but i love what i do and that i study and put all my self into the edge when i have to get one thing done. What i want, i get it. I am a very focused person. 


4) What's one thing you want to do before you die? 

This is a hard one, but maybe i would want to drive one of those giant trucks to transport containers of merchandise but on an extreme condition 
such as ice or in a dessert.   






5) What's one food you can't live without? 


I would have to say, down straight, that pastas are the one food that i couldn't live without, but i think they have way too much carbs and everything that this dis encourages me, but what ever, for the sake of this tag i would go with pastas all the way. You can check the post where i talk about some pasta and birthday dinner ideas here. 

6) What's one quote that you live your life by? 

“One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure its worth watching.”


I like this quote specially because you really have to make what you do what you love and if you don't you will feel an empty space. That is why you need to enjoy every second of your life and make it worth it. 


7) What do you like and dislike about the blog communities? 


I have been around that much in the blog communities but of one thing i am sure, i have to start learning how to get an award! (just kidding (;) but i think it is more closed and personal because people can connect to each other and share their interests. 


8) What's your n° 1 song on your iPod/iTunes? 


"love you like a love song" by Selena Gomez. which is awesome by the way! check it in the link below on amazon.com. 


9) What kind of style would you describe yourself as having? 


I think I have a really classy style, I like the Paris style and the royals outfits. I am not that kind of girl that is going to wear working out outfits to go to the mall or shopping at the grocery store. I love Sky-high heels and pretty dresses and skirts, but go along very well with jeans and a pair of uggs in a cold winter afternoon. I take a lot of the style from Gossip Girl, specially from Blair. 

10) Favourite Number? 

10, my birthday, the number of this question and it mainly describes everything important to me. 

11) Two Hobbies? 

Playing the piano and Playing Volleyball (when i have the time to do these) 

12) Two pet peeves? 

When people chew way too loud and when they start making noises with their pens like "click, click, click" and they never stop the fricking noise

and last but not least!

13) Your guilty pleasure? 

Actually i think that my biggest guilty pleasure is to watch movies in bed while eating a whole bag of doritos and drinking Fanta, that is my guiltiest pleasure on earth. 

Well guys, this is the end of the tag! if you like you can do this tag in your blog and link it on the comments below so that i can go check your blog and follow it! 
(maybe you'd like to follow mine too? maybe? :) thanks!)
